This project involves making felted beads and then using these beads to make a bracelet. If you have always wanted to try and felt something and haven't, here is your chance to get started on something that can't get any easier. This is also a fun project to do with kids. To follow along you will need:
- Fiber
- Water
- Palmolive dish soap
- Beads
- Stretch magic
- Crimp bead
- Charms
- Sewing thread and needle
- Pliers
- Wire (to hang charms)
Interested in joing an online trading group for crafts? Here are some of my favorites:
- http://groups.yahoo.com/group/artchixstudio/ - A great variety of projects and swaps using some of my favorite supplies from ARTchix
- http://groups.yahoo.com/group/arttechniques/ - This group shares their art techniques so that everyone can learn. This is the group that I participated in the book swap for the book you saw in the show.
- http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Charms2007swap/ - This group is great for swapping charms. It's great getting small pieces of art from a wide range of people.
- http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FiberArtTraders/ - I joined this group about six months ago, but have only followed along through emails. I definately think that some of you may find that this group suits you.
